Gastrointestinal upsets, including flatulence and bloating, can be the result of improper movement of food through the stomach or intestines. Ginger contains oleoresin, which is responsible for its pungent odor. Components of this resin, including shogaols, gingerols, and zingerone, can bind receptors on endocrine cells in the digestive tract and pancreas. This leads to increased secretion of gastric juices and bile, gastric motility, and gastric emptying. Digestive enzymes from the pancreas are increasingly released, reducing the time it takes for them to move through the intestines and helping to relieve intestinal disorders. In addition, ginger increases blood flow to the stomach's mucous membrane and inhibits serotonin receptors, which are responsible for controlling nausea. Bitter wormwood oil contains absinthine, an extremely bitter component. Like pungent ginger, bitter components can bind receptors on endocrine cells in the digestive tract and pancreas, synergistically enhancing gastric juice secretion, motility, and pancreatic digestion.
